## Direct Mail Questions
What is the difference between a postcard and a letter campaign?
Postcards are often efficient for visibility and repeat frequency. Letters may be a better fit when more content, personalization, or formal presentation is needed.
How often should we mail?
That depends on your goals, audience, and program structure. Many clients mail monthly or quarterly.
What is the typical direct mail timeline?
Timelines vary depending on format, data readiness, and mailing requirements.
How does postage work?
Postage is based on format, quantity, mailing method, and timing. We help determine the appropriate mailing approach for each campaign.

## Programs & Pricing
Do you offer subscription programs?
Yes. Subscription programs are available for recurring direct mail campaigns.
What is your minimum volume?
Most ongoing direct mail programs start around **20,000 pieces per month**.
Do you offer contract or fixed pricing?
Yes. Structured programs often include defined pricing for production and services. Postage can be fixed on a case by case basis for up to one year under contract, as it is subject to change based on USPS rates.
Do I need a contract?
Program structure determines agreement terms.
How does billing work?
Billing depends on the type of work, mailing schedule, and postage requirements. Most clients for their first year are required to make services and postage payments upfront and then transition to a net 30 if in good standing.
What is the difference between ad hoc projects and a program?
Ad hoc projects are one-time campaigns. Programs are designed for recurring execution with more consistency in pricing, workflow, and timelines.
